I had a look, a few sites that do offer refunds only do so within 4 or so days.

has anyone gone through the motions of buying stock and returning it, and seeing what, if any, warnings are given in an email, and what, if any, repercussions there are if caught using the files?
Do we have a list of who allows returns and who doesn't? seems to me those sites should also get our support.

I think when you dig deeper there's some pretty normal stuff in there too.

did you mention it in the notes?
I certainly did. two times, as the 2 images I had to resubmit wouldn't go through together so I got to put my MR glitch argument to them again.

I vaguely understand the categories option. Certainly it's useful on eBay. So I suppose if you're searching "painter" and you want house renovations only then you could refine it? however, on SS it didn't seem even that option was possible?
overall SS aren't bad, but an "opt out" of categories would be best. (we just don't care, and the categories are too consuming. Frankly, anything more than 1 second is annoying)

no people.
objects? to me that means: things on white.
I dont' see a bridal bouquet as an "object"
i think I did "misc" and "vintage' (I did a vintage wash on them, plus they were muted coloured rosed, simple, very vintage)
what "celebrations" category?

last batches just through, 7 days.
annoyingly I think there's a glitch with attaching MR to multiple images at once, as I had a couple from a series rejected for this reason (even though clearly there was one attached to others). *sigh, resubmit*
but, one of them has sold in the first day, you gotta love SS for that.

so just doing up some random wedding things (bouquet/cake) and there seems to be no category for this.
misc?
I'd be loathe to use Holidays as that's just wrong
Food is wrong
Vintage is my secondary option, but I don't like to spam.
shall i presume categories are just a waste of time, like everywhere?
do any designers use them?

I've made myself a bunch of templates called "bargain" "everyday" "special" "unique" I dropped all xmas stuff to bargain prices, which hopefully i'll remember to change back in september  anything that's been done a lot is $10 or $15, although I don't try to undercut others as I don't believe in racing you to the bottom. "everyday" (or my other one "people") is $15 or $19. . last two are $49 and $99. basically just my fave images that hurt me to sell at 25c elsewhere. sure they may never sell, but they are my favourites and you've got to treat them right  edit: oops, I *don't* want to undercut others

Yeah, there's a "View results" button at the bottom of the poll. It's faint, but it's there.
ah, ala Pond5's styling? i'll look out for it next time, but this "let's play where's wally" on each website gets tiresome.

so the 9 who voted for SS, are they iS admins who had to vote to see the results?
Actually you can see the results before voting.
Jesus bless you.
can you?

ooh, what a classy site.

I had problems finding it although it's quite obvious once you spot it.
precisely. once you've wasted time trying to find stuff attaching the release is no fun either. when you've got a lot of images to edit the scroll down to the teeny tiny drop down menu at the bottom is truly a case of "when you spot it". I probably only upload there once a month and each time I return I have to relearn how to use their site, which is one of the taboos in marketing: a customer should not have to learn a new way to navigate your special, bespoke site.

I can't imagine why anyone would vote for iS and FT, I see their ads all over the internet anyway (in addition to the obvious). last night I was playing with my school's fair website and they have stock images from FT that i can use (geez, I hope they were paid for!).

increased port by 50, sales low, but no returns at least.

i think the time reset itself, I've noticed for a week? it seemed out, and I only just checked. Yes, was 5 hours out.
ok, that's my fault, stupidly assuming GMT.

« on: March 27, 2013, 03:42 »
wait, can't you drag them down into that bit at the bottom and do a batch edit?
although you still have to go in and triple check all their little boxes.
i rarely upload more than 10 a time (too scared to lose a big batch of good stuff in case they don't like one)

Crop view would be what a DX camera would take, Most of the DX lenses will not fill the complete sensor and have extreme vignetting.
except they don't because the camera recognises the DX lens and adjusts in camera for it. on a film camera that is certainly the case though.

the back end is still the same, right?

may consider a nikon soon.. i had read some good review of d7000, but how is it comparing to a more expensive model like d800?
and you guys mention something like DX lense.. so there are old digital lense can't use on new body?
nope, DX is the cropped sensor size. they still attach and work, but the camera adjusts and effectively you get that 'cropped' view. Nikon film camera lenses (all full frame) still work on DSLR bodies, barring one or two oldies. (it was Canon who changed their mount, not Nikon  )
